Re: Reader Says Mythbusters Missed on Hammer Strikes

I know a hammer will shatter and I have the scar to prove it.

I did not hit the face square and a chip flew off and severed an artery in my arm. Luckily it didn't hit my eye or an artery in my neck.

The whole face of the hammer had fine cracks after that and was not used again. I think another blow and the whole head would have shattered.
